Bonny Light Horseman

When Bonny commanded

His armies to stand

He leveled his cannons

Right over the land

He leveled his cannons

Had his factory to gain

And he still my light horseman

On the way comin' home

Broken hearted I'll wander

Broken heart I'll remain

Since my Bonny light horseman

In the wars he was slain

And if I was a small bird

And I had wings to fly

I would fly over the ocean

To where my love lies

And with my fawn wings

I'd beat over his grave

And I'd kiss the sweet lips that

Like old in the grave

Broken hearted I'll wander

Broken hearted I'll remain

Since my Bonny light horseman

In the wars he was slain

The dove laments for

Her mate as he flies

Oh, where tell me where love

My true love he lays

And where in the wide world

Is there one to compare

With my Bonny light horseman

Who was slain in the war

Broken hearted I'll wander

Broken hearted I'll remain

Since my Bonny light horseman

In the wars he was slain

Broken hearted I'll wander

Broken hearted I'll remain

Since my Bonny light horseman

In the wars he was slain
